Our biggest event of the year is just around the corner – and we need YOUR help to make it a huge success!

The Bear Branch Elementary PTA Fall Fest is coming up, Friday, October 24th from 5-8pm, and it’s going to be packed with fun, food, games, prizes and inflatables! But to keep things running smoothly and make your family's experience the best it can be, we strongly encourage all families to pre-order raffle tickets, wristbands and food!

Why Pre-Order?

 Skip the lines – your tickets will be labeled with your name and ready for quick pickup or sent home with your student prior to the event!
 Pre-sale only food – all meal combo orders must be placed in advance, with limited snacks/candy available without pre-sale purchase
 Discounted wristbands – get more bounce for your buck on inflatables and carnival prize games ($18 pre-sale, $20 at the door) - All children under 3 are FREE!
 Printed and Ready to drop raffle tickets when you pre-order. This is a huge time saver for you and our staff as it can take a long time to fill out 50-100 individual slips of paper with your student's name and phone number. Do yourself a favor and PRE-ORDER all raffle tickets!

 PRE-SALE RAFFLE TICKETS DEADLINE: October 12th
 FOOD PRE-ORDER DEADLINE: October 21st

All orders must be placed online. This is the only way to guarantee food and get the best deals on fun!

See you at the Fall Fest!

Destination Imagination

Do you have a child who thrives on challenging activities? Does your child enjoy really baffling games and puzzles? Learning new skills? Writing or performing? Building mechanical and technical things? Working in a group? Generating lots of ideas? BBE is calling all 3rd, 4th, & 5th graders to apply now for Destination Imagination!  Limited spots available—tryouts will be held November 6th! Don’t wait, pickup an application in Ms. Osborne's Room, 308. Applications due by October 22nd!

Save the dates: October 24-30! Red Ribbon Week is coming — and this year, Life is a Puzzle! Live it Healthily! Dress-up days & campus activities are your chance to bring the pieces together with fun, creativity, and school spirit!  

Optimistic Thinking Guidance Lessons have begun! In the classes I’ve visited so far, we’ve had a blast making paper airplanes and applying a growth mindset — sometimes you have to try, tweak, and try again to fly! 

4th Grade Personalized Counseling Meetings
In 4th grade, I will begin meeting individually with students for their personalized counseling meetings—a district-wide initiative designed to support each student. These meetings help students identify their strengths, goals, and future aspirations. My goal is to help students reach their goals, feel supported and on track to be College, Career, and Military Ready (CCMR).
